Palmwag Lodge is framed between the tall, swaying palms of a desert oasis on the banks of the dry Uniab River in Damaraland in the Kunene Region of north-western Namibia. Palmwag Lodge is one of Namibia's oldest and most popular tourist destinations, recognised internationally for its spectacular scenery, the host of incredible desert-adapted wildlife in close proximity, and the exciting possibility of encountering the endangered black rhino.
Activities at Palmwag Lodge revolve around daily game drives in open 4x4s into the vast 450 000-hectare Palmwag Concession and its surprising array of arid-adapted wildlife. A trip to the nearby Ovahimba village is an option where guests can experience first-hand the daily life of these desert nomads who still live by their ancient cultural traditions and rituals. A series of guided nature walks is also on offer.
Palmwag Lodge is an ideal stop-over en route to the Skeleton Coast, Kaokoveld, Etosha National Park and the remote Epupa Falls.
Located on the Uniab River in northwest Damaraland – a vacation opportunity with a difference. Waving palms whispering in the wind, spectacular surroundings which harbour the famous desert elephant, the rare black rhino, giraffe, zebra, gemsbok and many other wild animal species, sunsets to dream of – this is Palmwag Lodge, one of Namibia’s oldest and most popular tourist rendezvous. The lodge offers a fully licensed restaurant, swimming pool under shady palms, and a very cozy “pool bar” and lapa. Morning and afternoon game drives are offered daily. The well laid-out hiking trails let you enjoy and discover the neighbouring nature. With early booking, lodge offers guided full day excursions as well as overnight safaris through the breathtaking landscapes of the Damaraland.
